A man and a woman were shot and injured on March 1, 2025, by unidentified gunmen, while the two were in a car near Istamou village’s crossroad on the Latakia-Jabla Highway in rural Latakia governorate. The area is under the control of the current transitional authorities in Syria.
The Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR) is still trying to locate eyewitnesses to obtain more information about the incident.
We call on the controlling forces to uphold their responsibilities in protecting civilians in their areas, investigate this incident, and make the findings available to the public.
